The Philadelphia Flyers are streaking right now. A 5-2 win over the Washington Capitals cemented a 7-game winning run for the Orange and Black, but it wasn’t all sunny for Philadelphia.

Winger James Van Riemsdyk took a wrister to the knuckle of his right hand early in the first period. He was sent to the locker room and is now expected to miss some time during a crucial run of games.

Van Riemsdyk had tallied 19 goals and 21 assists for 40 points this season, making 65 appearances for the Flyers and manning their third line.
